Elphin 0-15 Kilmore 1-9:

Six frees from Fintan Cregg helped the Seniors to a win over Kilmore in the Championship on Saturday evening. Ronan Beirne, Martin McCaffrey, Shane Killoran and Gerry Cregg were also scored in what was a great all-round team performance.

They will face the same opposition in the Division One Relegation play-off over the coming weeks.

Commiserations to Niall, Peter and the Roscommon U17s on their defeat to Tyrone.

Best of luck to Elphin-Ballinameen U16 players Shane O’Neill and David Wynne and the Rocommon U16s in their upcoming campaign.

The U14 B Team defeated St Brigids B by 4-10 to 3-6 while the A Team narrowly lost to Michael Glaveys on a scoreline of 1-11 to 3-11. They will face St Aidans in their rescheduled game on Thursday at 7pm in Ballyforan.

The U12s secured a share of the spoils with Padraig Pearses on Saturday morning. Although down by five scores at one stage they showed courage and skill to fight back and draw the game on a scoreline of 0-12 apiece. In conjunction with the Enterprise Village at Elphin Show an U12 Blitz will be held in the Orchard on Saturday morning. The matches begin at 11am and all are welcome to attend.
